Harry Potter!

I really haven't been doing much sewing, but this is what I've been working on for the last week: Last night was the Seattle night for the Geeks Who Drink "Geeky Cauldron," which was an all-Harry Potter themed pub-type quiz. Naturally, I attended in costume. I reworked my old costume (I used to dress up as Hermione) to turn it into Ravenclaw, and also spent a lot of time studying. The robe and skirt I made way way back when (two of my first sewing projects ever).  I crocheted the scarf (a couple yrs ago, but I didn't finish it until Monday), painted the silvery stripes on the tie, painted the patch completely freehand, and sewed the new patch on. Of course, then it was too hot in the bar to actually wear the robes... Oh well! We officially came in in 8th place, but really, we tied for 6th.
